User Reviews for Burwood Tap
09/19/2007 Posted by bardfist
The Burwood used to be the local spot and it is one of the oldest taverns in Chicago. But change of management led to the introduction of pink christmas lights, an unplugged jukebox, the most expensive pool table, unfriendly bartenders (most of the cocktail servers and door men are still good) and the manager's IPOD belching out Madonna, show tunes, and bad rap while the Bears, Cubs, and Sox are silenced. Need I say more.
Pros: In the neighborhood.
Cons: Not a good neighbor.

The Burwood Tap (or the wood) is your quintessential neighborhood bar. We were in during the week and enjoyed a free buffet. The bartender was friendly and seemed to know everyone. It was full of young and old alike - all I would imagine were regulars. With that said, it doesn't shock me that it won Best of Citysearch 2006 neighborhood bar. We'll be back soon!
Pros: Perfect if you're looking for a LP neighborhood bar!

This is the worst bar in Lincoln Park. Terrible service, drink specials that aren't special at all, and a crowd that consists of dudes looking for fights and ugly girls. Stay away, trust me!
Pros: not a one
Cons: crowded unruly crowd, overpriced drinks

This is a neighborhood bar in it's truest form! If you want to hang out in casual surroundings where the staff will most likely remember not only your name, but your usual drink, this is your kind of place. In this day and age of clubs and upscale joints, it's nice to know a true neighborhood pub still exists! Kudos Burwood!
Pros: friendly staff, friendly customers
Cons: cab or walk-- not much parking available

This is really a nice place, but the service is terrible. Went in with 4 friends and ordered drinks and shots. After we get about half of our order, we see the blonde bartender taking another order? After we remind her that she should finish our order first, we start getting a attitude. Second round.After trying to get her attention for 10 min., because she is to busy texting on her phone, which seems to be the norm with all the girls here, we finally get another drink. I really liked this place, but wont be back untill they fire their staff.
Pros: cool place, nice people
Cons: service?? what service??? there was none!!

This bar is perfect for meeting up with friends on a weekday night or afterwork. The staff is great and the price is right. Offers a warm atmosphere that makes for a great community gathering spot.
